Answer:

$8.72

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the tax rate is 9% of the lunch cost, the tax for this lunch is .72 dollars since 9% of 8 is 0.72(see math below). You add the 0.72 to 8 and the total cost is $8.72.

8 x (9/100) = tax

8 x 0.09 = 0.72

8+0.72 = $8.72

Answer: The Martinex family spent $ 82 for train ride and play tickets.

Step-by-step explanation:

Round trip train cost = $ 8.00

For children it cost $ 4.00.

For adult, ticket for play costs= $ 14.00

For children , ticket for play costs= $ 6.00

Mr. And Mrs. Martinez will go with their children, Ricky, Ramona, and Thomas.

2 adults and 3 children ( only one of them is under 7.)

For train we consider only 1 as child rest as adult.

Train cost = 4 x($ 8.00)+ 1 x ($ 4.00)

= $ 32+4 = $36

For play , total cost = 2 x ( $ 14.00) + 3 x ($6)

= $(28+18)

= $ 46

Total spending ( combined) = $36+$ 46

= $82

So, the Martinex family spent $ 82 for train ride and play tickets.

In a recently administered iq test, the scores were distributed normally, with mean 100 and standard deviation 15. what proporti

iragen [17]

To solve for proportion we make use of the z statistic. The procedure is to solve for the value of the z score and then locate for the proportion using the standard distribution tables. The formula for z score is:

z = (X – μ) / σ

where X is the sample value, μ is the mean value and σ is the standard deviation

when X = 70

z1 = (70 – 100) / 15 = -2

Using the standard distribution tables, proportion is P1 = 0.0228

when X = 130

z2 = (130 – 100) /15 = 2

Using the standard distribution tables, proportion is P2 = 0.9772

Therefore the proportion between X of 70 and 130 is:

P (70<X<130) = P2 – P1

P (70<X<130) = 0.9772 - 0.0228

P (70<X<130) = 0.9544

Therefore 0.9544 or 95.44% of the test takers scored between 70 and 130.

Lin solved the equation

Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer: x=1/2

she was wrong, it's supposed to be

Step-by-step explanation: 8(x−3)+7=2x(4−17)

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

8(x−3)+7=2x(4−17)

(8)(x)+(8)(−3)+7=2x(4−17)(Distribute)

8x+−24+7=−26x

(8x)+(−24+7)=−26x(Combine Like Terms)

8x+−17=−26x

8x−17=−26x

Step 2: Add 26x to both sides.

8x−17+26x=−26x+26x

34x−17=0

Step 3: Add 17 to both sides.

34x−17+17=0+17

34x=17

Step 4: Divide both sides by 34.

34x/34=17/34 x=1/2
